Getting your toes squashed when you get stood on and mucking out the field in the torrential winter rain.

Sense of achievement when you accomplish something with a new horse. Sheer Jo and fun of riding and discovering individuals charecters.

Happy and outgoing. I don't like being cooped up indoors for days on end.

Had a Son 2 months premature in July 08. Hence my having not ridden since March because I was thrown quite badly when I was Pregnant and my husband and doctor banned me from riding. Happily Married to a husband who doesn't mind my obsession with horses, I'm trying to teach him to ride but he's not a natural to say the least. 3 dogs. 2 Chipmunks.
